F-11 Group MeetingBrazil’s Proposal

TOR for an Extended-Panamazonia Project.

Watching the World Forest through Satellite Remote Sensing.

Bali, Indonesia Feb 23th, 2010

1.Summary and Purposes

This document describes the general terms of references of e-Panamazonia Project. The purpose of the project is to build

technical capacity to watch tropical rain forest through the use of satellite Remote Sensing. The procedures are strongly supported

by freeware-GIS and public images such are NASA-GEOCOVER&MODIS and CBERS digital data. These images

have to be ortho-rectified in order to be organized in databanks for every country of the F11-Group, in precision-levels. In order to

extract thematic information, the images must be submitted to a Spectral Mixture Model-SMM and also to segmentation, according

to the routines available in free wares such as Brazil's National Institute for Spatial Research (Instituto Nacional de Pesquisas

Espaciais) (INPE)’s SPRING. The last step of the procedures is the photo interpretation of databanks at digital level.

Eight classes at least would be mapped:

1) Forest coverage;2) Deforestation within the forest; 3) Regrowth; 4) Savanna coverage; 5) Deforestation within the savanna; 6) Savanna regeneration; 7) Ages of regrowths and regenerations, 8) Hydrology and drainage.

These procedures will be applied to selected country sites and transfered to local communities technical teams by hands-on training. At the end of the proposed activities experienced technical staff will be ready to analyze and to improve local digital banks and thus pursue continuous monitoring of the 'forest & savanna' coverage in the F11 countries.

About the Technical Team

• Key Specialists:

• 1. Edition of thematic information at raster level

• 2. Downloading and preprocessing of data including• vector and cartographic analysis.

• 3. Remote Sensing of tropical forestry

Main Events

• 1. Downloading free images from public datacenters• e.g. U.S.G.S-GEOCOVER; NASA-TERRA/AQUA• INPE-CBERS.• 2. Ortho-rectifing the images• 3. Entering the images to Multispectral Mixture Model • and Segmentation.• 4. Organizing databanks at accurate precision level• 5. Raster Edition upon photointerpretation of selected country sites• 6. Organizing training matters• 7. Training in four seasons.• 8. Support and advise to local teams.

8 Themes to be Mapped

• 1) Forest coverage; • 2) Deforestation within the forest; • 3) Regrowth; • 4) Savanna coverage• 5) Deforestation within the savanna; • 6) Savanna regeneration; • 7) Ages of regrowths and regenerations,

• 8) Hydrology and drainage.
